Thermochemical recycling of plastic waste to base chemicals via pyrolysis followed by a
minimal amount of upgrading and steam cracking is expected to be the dominant chemical …

Heavy metals can be enriched in living organisms and seriously endanger human health
and the ecological environment, which has evolved into a significant global environmental …

Due to the excellent chelating properties of aminopolycarboxylic acid (APCAs), they can be
used for the removal of metals from contaminated waters. This paper reviews the research …

An overview of publications focussed on the period since 2000 and outlining modern
methods of sample preparation as well as advanced techniques for determination of rare …

The growing urban wastewater volume poses a major global environmental challenge,
especially in developing nations where inadequate treatment and discharge impact clean …

In this issue, Co (II), Pb (II), and Pd (II) were separated using an economical and green
microextraction technique. The air agitation was used as a green co-factor with dispersive …

In the present work, an efficient microextraction method was applied to separation and
preconcentration of Ni (II), Co (II), Pb (II) and Cr (III). This method is dispersive liquid–liquid …

Sample pretreatment methods, such as separation and/or preconcentration prior to the
determination of metal ions have developed rapidly due to the increasing need for accurate …

A new method of dispersive liquid phase microextraction (DLPME) combined with graphite
furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) was proposed for the determination of …

The capabilities of a synthesized ionic imprinted polymer (IIP), originally prepared for Ni
recognition/pre-concentration from seawater, have been evaluated for other trace elements …
